*A winter storm bringing the triple threat of ice, sleet, and snow Tuesday to parts of the South and central US has prompted officials to close roads and schools as they urge people to avoid traveling in dangerous conditions.
More than 40 million people from southeastern New Mexico to West Virginia are under various forms of winter weather alerts, including warnings of dangerous ice accumulations that are already making roads a nightmare, particularly in Texas, where roadways across the state have been shut down as first responders fan out to help motorists.
One person has already been confirmed dead in a 10-car pileup in south Austin, according to the Austin Fire Department. A second person was killed in Arlington, Texas when their vehicle rolled over, Arlington police said.
